The Epistle of James is now Available!
October 3, 2017 by Sam Storms
Several weeks ago I announced that my entire series of sermon notes on the book of Hebrews was available on my website. Today I’m happy to tell you that all twenty-two lessons on the book of James are now posted. If you are unfamiliar about how to access these documents, simply click on Resources at the top of the Home page, and then on Articles. Look under Biblical Studies, and at the bottom of the list you will see both Hebrews and James. These twenty-two articles are essentially a verse-by-verse analysis of James. I hope and pray you will find them helpful in your life or ministry, or in both.

The Nashville Statement
By: Sam Storms
I was in Nashville, TN, last Friday as I joined approximately 60 evangelical leaders to formulate and finalize a statement on what we believe is the biblical view of sexuality, with particular emphasis on homosexuality and transgenderism. This statement is sponsored by the Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood, together with the Ethics and Religious Liberties Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention. Continue reading . . .

10 Things You Should Know about Demons
By: Sam Storms
Last week we looked at ten things we should know about angels. Our focus was on good and holy angels, those who persevered in their obedience to God. But what about demons? Although fallen and rebellious, they, too, are angels. So today we turn our attention to some ten things the Bible says about demons. Continue reading . . .

When Pharisees get Saved
By: Sam Storms
I’ve always been fascinated by who remained, following the crucifixion of Jesus, to attend to his body and provide for his burial (see Mark 15:42-47). Contrary to what most of us would have expected, it wasn’t Peter or John or James or any of the disciples. Continue reading . . .

The Most Precious Words Augustine Ever Wrote
By: Sam Storms
That’s quite a claim in the title. I’m certain that others who have read far more of Augustine than I would beg to differ. Needless to say, we all have our favorite texts, those theologically rich and experientially captivating statements for which Augustine is justly famous. But I want to mention mine, which, as you probably have guessed, is found in his Confessions. Continue reading . . . That’s quite a claim in the title. I’m certai...Read More ➔

10 Things You Should Know about Angels
By: Sam Storms
Unbelievers scoff at the suggestion that angels are real. For them, angels are a holdover from the medieval mindset that debated endlessly about how many of them could dance on the head of a pin! But for the Christian who takes the Bible seriously, angels are an essential part of God’s universe and play a crucial role in the lives of believers. Here are ten things we need to keep in mind regarding who they are and what they do. Continue reading . . . Unbelievers s...Read More ➔

So let me tell you a story. Today, August 18, is a very important day in my life as a Christian. And it provides an important lesson for us concerning the nature and operation of the spiritual gift of prophecy. Continue reading . . .

“DOIN' THE STUFF” (REMEMBERING JOHN WIMBER)
By: Sam Storms
This year, 2017, marks the twentieth anniversary of the death of John Wimber. Ten years ago I wrote a brief article of remembrance to mark John’s passing. It seems only fitting that ten years later, on the twentieth anniversary of his death, that we should take a few minutes to remember this man and what he meant to the body of Christ. So I’m reposting the article I wrote in 2007. I hope you enjoy it. Continue reading . . . This year, 2017, marks the twentie...Read More ➔

“Satan and Sodomy”: An Incredibly Kind, Loving, Compassionate article from John Piper

Now that I have your attention, let me explain what I mean. Sadly, in today’s world if you refuse to endorse the moral legitimacy of same-sex physical intimacy you are branded as a hate-filled bigot, a homophobic who is devoid of love for those who struggle with (or have already yielded to) attraction to someone of the same sex. Continue reading . . . Now that I have your attention, let me explain what I mean. Sadly, in today’s world if you refuse to e...Read More ➔
